Reborn Super Hacker

Text [Rise of the Dragon] Chapter 360 "f-prot"

While the preliminaries of the "Growth II" fierce competition in China were in full swing, there was also joy abroad.

Because the supercomputer virus "Japan-US Storm" that endangers Japan and M countries already has anti-virus software that can kill it.

2 hours ago, in the f-prot security studio in Iceland.

It was already lunch time, and Ellis was still nervously collecting virus samples. After more than half an hour of sorting out, he finally collected the basic virus samples known today, a total of 130987.There are only 4 people in their studio, all of whom are his high school classmates. They joined Ellis's studio because of their interest, but they are usually very lazy, and basically all the work is done by Ellis alone. No, it was lunch time, and they had disappeared, leaving Ellis alone to update the virus database.

"Huh! oh..." Ellis stretched his waist, and then continued to work, because there are a lot of things today, I don't know why there are so many virus samples today, but he opened them as usual The studio's official website is a website that is all dominated by blue. As usual, he checked the number of visits to the website today, which has increased by 5% compared with yesterday. He feels very happy.

He entered the prefix of the background on the webpage. In fact, in this line of work, to put it bluntly, he must withstand the harassment of hackers.They have a deep understanding that from the first week, hackers have been constantly stress-testing their website. Due to financial problems, they can only endure this kind of torture until an unknown virus appeared last month. Analyzed and found its signature in time, and specifically killed it, so their antivirus software established a good image in Iceland, and the number of user installations in Iceland has been continuously increasing, which also brought them the first 10 With a wealth of US$[-], they used half of the money to buy a server and hosted it with the Icelandic Internet Regulatory Department. Because of the high-defense server, there will naturally be a lot less harassment.

After Ellis entered the web page suffix of the background, the browser pointed to the background smoothly, and he entered the account password of the administrator to log in. He took the lead in clicking on today's installation volume, and the data displayed was not bad. In the past 24 hours from yesterday to now, There are more than 300 installations, and only 26 users have uninstalled data, which is very good for today. You must know that when it was just started, it was growing by single digits every day.

Ellis opened the background function menu with a smile on his face. This menu can define the pages of the website at any time. There is also a function that can directly omit the step of logging in to the server, and upload more than 11m virus samples directly here, saving time and save trouble.

But when he clicked on the function menu, the page jumped, and the content of the displayed screen surprised him!He clearly saw Huang Fei's English message to him, and when he was still guessing who the other party was, he saw the package file below. The name of the file was "Japanese-American Storm Virus Sample", and of course it was in English. .Seeing this, he couldn't believe his eyes, this is not a dream, he thought to himself, he rubbed his eyes to make sure it wasn't a dream and he fell into thought.

He knew in his heart that this "Japan-US storm" virus had swept Japan and M countries, and the number of computers infected was roughly estimated to exceed 1000 million. What kind of concept is this, although he does not know who sent this virus sample It was given to him, but he knew it was absolutely true, not because he was so confident, but because the website of their studio has been opened for two months, and there has never been a hacker who can invade it, and the server does not have read and write permissions. Said to leave a message, but it actually appeared in front of him. The English words of "Japanese-American storm virus sample" deeply shocked him, because if their anti-virus software can really kill them, That would make it a hit!

He took a deep breath and suppressed the excitement in his heart. He moved the mouse to click on the file package. When he clicked on the file package, a confirmation download dialog box popped up on the screen. Ellis chose OK without hesitation, and the file was downloaded automatically. on the desktop.

This is a .h file, of course Ellis knew it was a C language file, he immediately opened the file, when he saw the familiar source code, his excitement was beyond words.

After modifying several characteristics, he returned to the browser, quickly uploaded the virus sample to the virus database of his antivirus software, and made a special killing tool according to Huang Fei's method, and successfully attached it to his antivirus software. Inside, just like this, the special killing tool for the "Japanese-American Storm" virus that threatened the two major computer countries of Japan and M appeared, but this studio shocked the anti-software circles all over the world.

Ellis simply classified today's update volume as a version update, and directly upgraded 1.2 to 2.0. This is not something that can be represented by a few numbers. This is a cross-generational update, marking the "f-prot" in the network security industry. A version of The Rise.

Since the closure of the Xuanwu Forum, hackers all over the world have lost their organization and can't find a good place to discuss it. At that time, a low-key company in India seized this opportunity and created a third safety net , after exaggerated publicity, this place will soon become the second "Xuanwu Forum". Of course, such a website needs a good server.

Ellis often communicates with hackers from all over the world here, and he can also get some important information from it. For example, if some hackers say what virus they want to release, he can know in advance, intercept the virus and analyze it at the first time, so as to find Find its signature to locate it, and then add it to the antivirus software.

Ellis opened the most frequently visited section, that is, security information synthesis. He directly wrote their anti-virus software into the post, and issued a statement that it can definitely check and kill the "Japanese-American Storm" virus. Ellis gritted his teeth. He He decided to take a gamble, and he released it without testing. It has to be said that this is a decision that has an important turning point in his life.

Sitting in front of his computer after the post was posted, he completely forgot that he was going to lunch.He was waiting for the effect. One minute after the post was sent out, the first reply was from a person from country y, saying that he was bragging and lying!Ellis didn't care about him, but rose amid the booing of others, this is the key to development!

After another few tens of seconds, several people replied to this post at the same time. Ellis refreshed it and saw a message saying to try it. He was so excited.

Time passed by, and Ellis was still waiting for the result. During this half hour, Ellis refreshed this board countless times. His post was suppressed by other posts, and he replied immediately push back.The hard work paid off, and finally, the first person who downloaded and installed it successfully killed the "Japanese-American Storm", and the name "f-prot" began to be known by the Internet community.

"Rick, what you said is true? Okay, okay, I'll try it right away!" A man with blond hair and gold-rimmed glasses responded excitedly to the phone.

In the most developed area of ​​electronic technology in the world, Silicon Valley in country m.Because of the "invasion" of the "Japanese-American storm", today's Silicon Valley seems dead silent, and there is no smile on the faces of the companies or employees here.The branch of the famous software company Adobe, Rick, the person in charge of the branch, just received a phone call saying that "Yimei Storm" already has anti-virus software that can be used to check and kill it. Don't mention how excited he was. , because the computers in the entire branch were infected with viruses, and the screens were all gray, so these projects, which were mainly used for graphic design, video editing and web development, had to be terminated.Because there is no color, these images cannot be edited at all, and they cannot be used for anything. Without color, it is like a computer losing its blood, and it is no longer gorgeous.

Rick just received a call from the headquarters, saying that they have found an anti-virus software that can check and kill the "Japanese-American Storm" virus, and they need to install it on all computers.When Rick heard this, he was very happy, and he immediately held a staff meeting. Seeing the helplessness of hundreds of employees who came to the meeting, Rick said excitedly: "Everyone, go and download an anti-virus software called 'f-prot', This anti-virus software can kill the 'Japanese-American Storm'!"

After Rick said this, the employees off the field were all at a loss. They couldn't believe it. "Mr. Stubborn" like "Japanese-American Storm" has nothing to do with it, let alone the world's famous anti-virus software I can't even find its specific location, where it is hidden in the system, and where it is injected. It is unbelievable that an antivirus software they have never heard of will launch this.But because Rick is the supervisor of the branch, they could only follow the instructions. Afterwards, hundreds of employees returned to their respective jobs and opened the "f-prot" website that Rick had set as the official website. , they unanimously clicked the download button.

Ellis looked at the installation data in the background, his brown pupils became wider and wider, because in just 10 minutes, the number of installations approached more than 10000 times, my God, this is something he couldn't even imagine before , he succeeded, the "Japanese-American Storm" can really kill it!He wanted to laugh, but laughing alone in this studio of less than 50 square meters would make the people next door feel stupid. He jumped up from the chair, "oh, ye!" Actions.

However, his work has only just begun, and what he has to face next is something that excites him even more.

ps: Happy National Day, this chapter is in the car, it took more than three hours to finish, now I am in Nan'ao Island.Hoo hoo.
